I used to like them as a kid but, now I noticed that the icing has become 'grainy'....little grains of sugar in it...and the cake seems dry. Maybe I had just tasted a bad batch. It is a shame though, that the business was forced to file bankruptcy. I have been in 3 unions......none of them were any good.

Mostly likely just a publicity stunt. Never fear, twinkies will be back. Some company will buy the recipe/rights and continue to manufacture them. My bet is Little Debbie. If there's a market someone will fill it.

Someone is selling a box of twinkies for 10,000 dollars!!!! I mean hey I'll miss Hostess to my first love was their cupcakes, but you'd have to be a complete nut to pay that, I know I wouldn't even if it was a box of cupcakes and I had disposable money..... u?
